Nabeel Albloushi, Head of Markets and Securities Services, MENA and Turkey at HSBC, said that the GCC region is experiencing rapid growth in its equity and bond markets.
This is supported by ambitious economic transformation programs such as Saudi Vision 2030, the shift toward a diversified economy away from reliance on oil, improved regulations, and growing confidence among global investors.
In an interview with Argaamon the sidelines of the HSBC GCC Exchanges Conference 2025 in London, Albloushi pointed to accelerating bond issuances, noting that issuances in the first five months of this year have already surpassed the full issuance value in 2024.
This reflects robust demand for financing to support the region’s large-scale development projects.
